Well I made it. 22 miles all under her own steam she is now parked up at War and Peace getting rained on. I cannot help but think after what was a mammoth effort to get the T16 there, that I should have left it at home. Basically she ran and drives really well, except when its been running for about 10 minutes it gets fuel starvation and stops. Usually on a corner as this is where I ask for power to turn around and therefore we stop and block the road on a bend. Great! I have a new electruc fuel pump and all new filter and lines, but the original tanks. Both have been throroughly cleaned but still have some dirt getting into the filters. I reckon my problem is that the electric fuel pump maybe too high up to manage to pull the fuel fom the bottom of the tank right the way to the filter next to the driver and then back to the pump and filter king and onto the carb. Of course it could have vaporization issues but I would have thought the electric pump would have overcome this?? All ideas much appreciated, but I will definitely be trailering it home. 22 miles on the road in a Carrier is far enough for me! I felt sure the tracks were visibly wearing down as well.
